Greetings Reggae Review Posse. I would like to dedicate this issue to a Dear Friend and a Person who Possessed a Great Spirit. "PELE LANIER" (December 30, 1948-May 31, 2001) Pele had such a Great Spirit that she touched each and everyone she came in contact with and she will be missed but never forgotten.  She was surely one of Jah's Blessed Children.  he was much Loved in and outside the Reggae Community. You can visit her Memorial Site
We all must live Life to the fullest because we never no the day or the hour that our Spirit will have to depart from here. If you have been to busy to tell your family, friends or that special one in your life how you care and feel about them do it now because You (or they) might not be around tomorrow. If you've been holding a grudge against someone and not speaking to them for
years. Let it go because you can take a Grudge over to the Jah's House. If you've never showed an act of kindness towards anyone than now's the time to show some Love to those who are Down and Out and who could use a helping hand. If you're saying what has this to do with Reggae. Its everything. "Roots and Culture"

Respect due the SNWMF who put one a Wicked Sold Out Festival at Angeles Camp. A good time was had by one and all. (Check next months Issue for Photos and Festival Review) If you missed it you missed a great treat. There were a lot of the pioneers of Reggae who mashed up the place musically.
